With the ongoing uncertainty and confusion over MBBS admissions, many students who don’t want to miss a year or take any risk are now settling for admissions in other courses.

Some of the students who got 197.5 and 199.2r have opted for courses like Biomedical Engineering , Electronics & Communications as they are not sure whether they will get a seat in MBBS in Government Medical College or not.

Fees in Private Medical Colleges of Tamil Nadu is high and not affordable for these students.

Students are also exploring options to do MBBS from Abroad at low cost and MBBS in Kyrgyzstan is generating a lot of interest as Government Universities there have very low fees and admit Indian students without any entrance exam.
